    Im sorry sonny, what is it you didnt understand? just like Huston did? the Astros g.m. came out and said we are not contending , but building. If i was Jimmy Pohlad? that means if i was the owner , i would try honesty....even at the risk of losing a few ticket sales. Trade them all? Doumit, Willingham,Justin and Perkins will not be here when we make another run, and if they are they will be 4 years older, and on the darkside of there careers....So tell me Mr. Fro Daddy ,did that clear things up?

    Personally i would rather see the money go to the cuban kids, i worry about Marcum injury and his groundout rate....
  3. johnnydakota
    And his under 40% rate of groundballs doesnt worry you?
  4. johnnydakota
    So your saying if ownership was honest, that would be a dumb idea? You prefer to be lied to?
  5. johnnydakota
    So your saying you would rather watch a 100 million dollar payroll lose 100 games, then watch young guys getting a chance?

    If you always do ,what you have always done. you always get , what you have always gotten. Think maybe it is time for a change?

    mlb gameday and broadcasts, in 2011 over 12.5 monthly subscriptions....1 of the money revenues mlb doesnt speak of...or over 2 billion in 2011 divided by 30 teams and a fee to the commisioners office to run mlb

    Nice 1st post , welcome aboard

    Just like huston did... Or if im Jimmy Pohlad , i address the media , trade them all and give out a 10/15% discount on ticket prices. Why trade them all, because in 2015-2017 when we are ready to compete again , who is going to be left? Why not add some pirces now, i would rather watch kids develope , then to watch mulity millionaire loss 100 games.

    4.86 ERA in AA , this season will probally dictate wether or not May is a starter or a relief pitcher, some people believe
  11. johnnydakota
    on extra security for the brinks trucks?
  12. johnnydakota
    We missed our chance when Toronto signed Macier Ituris to a 3 year 11 million dollar contract....grrrrrr
  13. johnnydakota
    He already is laughing as he takes his check to the bank, when the 2013 season is over we will probally see our payroll was closer to 70 million , then 80 million , so that means 40 million will have been eliminated from payroll, and the twins will continue to lose... What happened to the promises that were made when they begged for money for a new stadium? If justin is traded and we pay only 7 million of his salary then our payroll is less then 73 million ,about what it was in the dome days. It is very posible we open 2014 with a payroll of less then 60 million.... So yes Terry is having the last laugh, as St. Pete orders more brinks trucks ....
  14. johnnydakota
    dont forget the extra tv revenue , carroll and blackburn so we will have eliminated 50 million in salarys in 2 years?while adding to revenue. nice job .....St Pete will need to hire a couple of extra brinks trucks to haul Pohlads profits
  15. johnnydakota
    It is indeed a sad future for the twins and fans
  16. johnnydakota
    Blackburn and the gremlin ( carroll) as well so thats over 29 million if willingham is traded
  17. johnnydakota
    They have this site called MLB rumors...several times in the last couple of months different writters have posted just those words . As for Baker Ryan wanted 1 year plus an option , probally at a team friendly deal , so scott signed with the cubs, as for Cuddyer last year he offered him a 30% pay cut to return , probally the same for Kubal , declined Nathan , then im guessing tried to low ball him plus an option , much the same as baker . As for Crapps he acepted the 30% pay cut and returned ....
  18. johnnydakota
    Marcier Izturis? This years gremlin....
  19. johnnydakota
    And i believe Terry was brought back specifically to lower payroll. I think Pohlad gives the fans lipp service while telling Ryan to slash payroll
  20. johnnydakota
    And how many can lay down a bunt?Advance a runner , hit the cutoff man, or how many middle infielders do we have that have under 30+ errors?how many pitchers refine or learn a new pitch since being signed? i find the entire system lacking and needing replacing . Ihave thought for some time now that we need to fire everyone from David ST.Pete right down to the janator in the instructional leaque , because for some time now kids arnt ready when they get to the show , even after sitting year after year in the minors...
  21. johnnydakota
    A sentiment felt by many fans
  22. johnnydakota
    Amen , if Pohlads wanted a winner they would have a winner....instead they want profit , so they have profit. Just like Hal in Spankee land the kids only care about money
  23. johnnydakota
    And now Bill is inspecting toilets in South American stadiums.....
  24. johnnydakota
    Gordon , is that you? step away from the pipe =)
  25. johnnydakota
    So your saying they spent to much time teaching the young batters to bunt? but i think your correct in thinking that there is a lack of teaching and developing in the minors, i just think it is not just pitching that is lacking
